Targos Game Dev Posts: 196	Hi Folks, I was just wondering if this is likely to be damaging to my Mac. This is Tottes Overlooked Bathroom floor filer doing a 2048X render. Fans running pretty loud on my iMac. CPU FLuctuating between 80 and 140%. Is that ok? Runnign more than just filter forge too but FF is takign the lions share of CPU.

Not sure if was FF, Logic, or what, but thereafter I'm thinking smcFanControl is always good to have the fans blowing. _____________________________________________________ http://web.archive.org/web/2021062908...rjadesign/ _____________________________________________________
